The idea of a rogue, genius inventor working outside the confines of a government or corporate lab, creating a new technology that could potentially change the world, is certainly tantalizing. Who knows: Guido Fetta could be the next Tesla, and his QDrive could very well revolutionize space travel. Or it could be an idea lacking a sound scientific basis.

What looks like nothing more than a hubcap retrieved from the side of the road, is supposedly the secret to what makes the QDrive engine produce large quantities of thrust, with a minimal amount of input energy. The scientific theories, principles and formulas behind how it works are outlined on the Cannae LLC website. And I encourage you to spend as much time as you need pouring through the abstracts and documents to grasp the concept.
